Risk Strategies has named Michael Sean Grant as employee benefits practice leader for the firm’s greater New York region.
Previously, Grant was senior vice president and managing director at a New York City insurance brokerage, where he was responsible for restructuring its single employee benefits office in New York into a national practice, spanning across California, Texas and Florida.
Grant’s appointment follows the promotion of Chris Powers to oversee its eastern US employee benefits operations.
In this new role, Grant will work closely with Powers to help grow the firm’s overall employee benefits business, while focusing on the employee benefits operations in the Greater New York area.
John Greenbaum, national employee benefits practice leader at Risk Strategies, said: “Risk Strategies’ employee benefits practice is committed to hiring and retaining the best experts in the industry in order to deliver superior service.”
Greenbaum added: “Michael Sean Grant’s background and proven ability to drive growth through innovation makes him a perfect fit as we continue to build out our national practice and create unmatched value for our clients.”
